Title: Exchangeable crimping jaw unit
IPC: H01R43/042
Filed: 1972-11-14
Abstract: 1431267 Making electrical connections; jointing by stamping PLESSEY CO Ltd 26 Oct 1973 [14 Nov 1972] 56421/72 Headings B3A and B3Q An exchangeable jaw unit for a crimping machine comprises a pair of jaws and a ram for operating them, the ram being adapted for attachment to a driving member in the machine and at least one of the jaws being pivotable. As shown the unit includes a casing 8 in which the jaws are turned about pivots 14, 16 by a replaceable cam 18B floating in a slot in the ram 18 which has a further slot 24 to receive the hooked end of a slide 28. After sliding into position, the jaw unit is retained by plates 55, 57 bolted to the top of the machine casing 6, the plates 55, 57 including guides 60, 62 for wire to be joined by a connector, Fig. 4 (not shown). The ends of wire are trimmed by blades 64, 66 on the outer faces of the jaws 10, 12. The slide is operated through gearing or a ram 40 either direct or by means of a lever 32. A switch 80 connects the machine to a power supply and a further switch 82 starts the slide for a crimping stroke which may include compression of the base of the connector by the ram 18. A pressure switch initiates the return stroke stopped by a switch 72, and a safety device may prevent contact between the ram and jaws in the absence of a connector. Leaf springs 20, 22 return the jaws. Feeding of a strip of connectors along a passage 56 is by a pawl 63 on an arm turned by a handle 61. A pin 54 mounted on the ram 18 projects into the passage 56 to prevent backward movement of the strip of connectors. The machine may be secured to a crimping rail by a tapped socket.

Mechanism for positioning a pulley in a cable and pulley aggregation type selecting mechanism comprises a rod 3 which passes through a pin 4 carrying the pulley, the pin 4 being located in a fixed guide 2, the rod 3 being biased by a spring 6 towards a continuously rotating cam 7 but being linked to a pair of articulated levers 8, 9 whereby, by energization of an electromagnet 10, the rod 3 can be held in its highest position, the pin 4 being at its low position if the right hand end 13 is free to move, so that the rod 3 pivots about the pin 4, and at its high position if the right hand end 13 is fixed, thus acting as a pivot point for the rod 3, and the rod is held upwardly by the electromagnet 10. The end 13 of the rod may be free as shown and selectively engageable with a latch member 14 by de-energization of an electromagnet 17. In a modification (Fig. 2, not shown) the right hand end (18) of the rod (3) is linked to a pair of articulated levers (19, 20) which may pivot freely or be held by an electromagnet (21).

Abstract: 1457405 Variable load sewage treatment vessels J J TODD 18 Feb 1974 [20 Nov 1972] 53624/72 Heading C1C A vessel for use in the treatment of variable loads of sewage comprises a settlement compartment, at least two aeration compartments, and flow altering means for altering the direction of flow of material within the vessel to cater for an alternately increased and decreased rate of entry of B.O.D. The vessel has particular application for communities of 20,000 to 30,000 persons per system. In one form of the vessel there is a contact zone (22), a stabilization zone (23), a digester zone (24) and a central setting zone (25). In addition to a normal large airlift (26), the settling zone is provided with a smaller airlift (27) for returning sludge to the contact zone. A mixed liquor-solids collection trough (28) allows material to be diverted from the stabilization zone, through the trough, into the settling zone, using ports (29) and (30). A further trough or feed distribution channel (32) may be used to divert material entering the vessel via inlet (33), so that material enters the stabilization zone through one or more of ports (34) (35) and (36). Alternatively material may enter the contact zone via port 37 and port (38) may be sealed. One or more closable openings (40) are provided in the partition (39), preferably the total area of the opening or openings (40) should be at least twice the discharge area of the large airlift (26). Operation of the apparatus using extended aeration rather than conventional contact stabilisation utilises the contact and settling zones only; other variations are to use the stabilization zone only for extended aeration, or to carry this out using both the contact and stabilization zones. Finally, use of the apparatus for conventional contact stabilization using all three zones is described.

The arbors can thus be cut from a stock length without the need to machine shoulders. As shown the arbor has four rectangular grooves 16 formed by drawing the stock through a die, and one groove engages the end of the spring. A ratchet wheel 2, which is engaged by a crown wheel (not shown) for winding, has at least one lug engaged in a groove 16 and is force fitted on the arbor in an axial position which determines a running clearance d.  A flange 10 on plate 9 locates the arbor in the opposite direction, and a bevel 11 on the arbor facilitates its insertion through the inner coil of the spring. In an alternative embodiment the ratchet wheel (20), Fig. 2 (not shown) is pressed or held by a screw on the end of the arbor and is located outside the bridge (22). The arbor is then axially located by an integral loss on the bridge engaging the inner face of the ratchet wheel and by skewing the teeth (29a) of the crown wheel (29) and of the ratchet wheel.

Abstract: 1340839 Selective printing PHILIPS ELECTRONIC & ASSOCIATED INDUSTRIES Ltd 30 Nov 1972 [3 Dec 1971] 55338/72 Heading B6F Hammer impression.-The energy of a firing spring 3 is transmitted to a hammer 1 via a pawl 5, which only engages after the hammer is held in the locked position by an electromagnetically released permanent magnet 2. This enables the firing spring 3 to be tensioned after the hammer is cocked. Example 1, Fig. 1.-The force of spring 3 is exerted on the lower end of pivoted hammer 1 via a driving lever 4 pivoted at the hammer pivot M, and via the hook of pawl 5 pivoted to the lever 4. When the hammer is released, it pivots about M under the force of the spring 3, and when the lever 4 strikes stop 10, the hammer continues under its own momentum to strike type cylinder 8. This is possible, since the pawl 5 rotates about its pivot thereby disengaging from the lower end of the hammer 1 due to the eccentric weight 11. A weak spring 15 returns the pawl 5 to its initial position, and a bail 13 fixed to a continuously rotating disc 14 engages the lever 4 to re-tension the spring 3. Example 2 (Figs. 2 and 3).-The hammer is supported on parallel leaf-springs (17, 18), and a further leaf-sping (19) acts as the firing spring, transmitting its force via a pawl (20) pivoted to the hammer body (16). The pawl rotates out of the path of the leaf-spring (19), due to eccentric weight (21), when the hammer impacts the typecylinder. This allows the hammer to rebound and be relatched by the permanent magnet.
